Having and expressing gratitude is an important part of one's spiritual practice. It opens up the heart and activates positive emotional centers in the brain and body. It has a measurable physiological response. The regular practice of gratitude can change the way our synapses fire into more positive automatic patterns via the Autonomic Nervous System. These positive emotions we evoke can soothe upset and distress, while broadening our thinking patterns so we develop an expanding and more macro view of our lives.
Gratitude is an emotion of disconnectedness, which helps to remind us we that are part of a much larger universe with all living things. Listed below are some quotes about gratitude to help inspire you and deepen your thinking about finding an enduring place for gratitude in your own life.
Gratitude Quotes
To start bringing more gratitude into your life, you can deliberate and meditate all the things in your own life that help you or give you peace. You can also write and keep a gratitude journal, posting pictures or creating "vision boards" and writing about the things you feel grateful for each and every day. The holidays are also a great time to express your heartfelt gratitude to friends and family by writing cards and exchanging thoughtful, personal gifts. Baking or sending cookies for neighbors or sharing food with the needy are other ways to show/share/express your appreciation for the abundance that we have. Gratitude can lead to feelings of love, appreciation, generosity, and compassion, which further open our hearts and help reprogram our brains and "mental blueprint" to fire in more positive ways.
Thanks for your time. I appreciate you!
